Hello,
I was wondering if anyone has run across this problem in the past and might be
able to suggest a solution.
I did a review of the FAQ's link trying to find a topic that closely related to
the experience I was having, however I didn't see
anything that might help in diagnosing the problem.
While invoking the options under the "package" menu I get the following errors:
chooseCRANmirror()
Warning message:
In open.connection(con, "r") : cannot open: HTTP status was '0 (nil)'
setRepositories()
update.packages(ask='graphics')

Error in install.packages(NULL, .libPaths()[1L], dependencies = NA, type =
type) :
no packages were specified
setRepositories()
Does anyone have any insights into what might cause this issue, and how I might
fix the problem?
Any thoughts you may have would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance - Joe Lenart
p.s. - I have confirmed that I can access the mirror sites using a regular
browser, so I do not believe this to be a security
or firewall-related issue.
